Dice.com Jobs Scraper

The fastest way to turn Dice.com searches into structured tech-job data. Start from any Dice search URL, a job-detail URL, or a plain keyword with filters — and get one clean JSON/CSV row per job posting, with salary, skills, remote status, visa sponsorship, and the full company profile.

Beyond the job data itself, this actor can do three things no other Dice scraper offers: discover the employer's real website and contact email, qualify each employer as a paying business (payment-stack detection: Stripe, Shopify, PayPal and more), and run in monitoring mode so scheduled reruns return only never-seen-before postings.

Why Use This Scraper?

• ✅ Two input modes — paste Dice search/job URLs, or let the actor build the search from keyword + filters
• ✅ Full job-detail rows — salary, skills, employment types, remote/hybrid, sponsorship, apply method
• ✅ Complete company profile per job — logo, description, branding assets, recruiter vs direct employer
• ✅ Opt-in employer contact emails — website discovery + contact-page harvesting per company
• ✅ Opt-in payment-stack qualification — flags employers that take money online (Stripe key detection included)
• ✅ Monitoring mode — schedule it and each rerun emits only jobs it has never seen before
• ✅ Applicant-count field (apply.jobApplyCount) captured whenever Dice exposes it
• ✅ Pure HTTP with the mobile detail API — no browser, fast runs, JSON or CSV out

Overview

The Dice.com Jobs Scraper is built for recruiters, staffing agencies, lead-gen teams, and job-market analysts who need structured job data from Dice.com — the leading US tech job board run by DHI Group.

The output is job-shaped rows. Whether you start from a search URL, a single job-detail URL, or a keyword, every dataset item is one job posting with the same schema: identifiers, dates, pay, skills, description, apply info, company profile, and location.

One thing to know up front: each job in the search results is fetched again through Dice's job-detail API, so rows contain the full detail payload (complete HTML description, company branding, apply metadata) — not just the thin search-result cards other scrapers return.

Supported Inputs

URL types

URL type	Pattern	Example
Job search	dice.com/jobs?q=…	https://www.dice.com/jobs?q=software+engineer&location=United+States&countryCode=US
Job detail	dice.com/job-detail/{uuid}	https://www.dice.com/job-detail/e1be0c83-95a9-4c72-af15-457bd41c92ee

Copy-pasteable startUrls

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.dice.com/jobs?q=software+engineer&location=United+States&radiusUnit=mi&language=en&countryCode=US",
    "https://www.dice.com/job-detail/e1be0c83-95a9-4c72-af15-457bd41c92ee"
  ]
}

Keyword / filter mode

Leave startUrls empty and the actor builds the Dice search URL for you:

{
  "keyword": "data engineer",
  "location": "Austin, TX",
  "workplaceType": "Remote",
  "employmentType": "FULLTIME",
  "postedDate": "SEVEN"
}

Priority rule: when both are configured, startUrls wins — the keyword and filter fields are ignored for that run.

Unsupported inputs

• ❌ URLs outside dice.com (other DHI boards like ClearanceJobs are not supported)
• ❌ Anything behind the Dice login wall — candidate profiles, applications, employer dashboards
• ❌ Shortened or redirect URLs — paste the full URL from your browser

Use Cases

Audience	Use case
Recruiters & staffing agencies	Pull fresh postings by tech stack, spot direct-hire vs recruiter listings, reach employers via enriched contact emails
Lead-gen & sales teams	Companies hiring engineers are buying tools — enrich with contact email + payment-stack signals to qualify leads
Job-market analysts	Track salary ranges, skill demand, remote-vs-onsite ratios across the US tech market
Job-alert builders	Monitoring mode + a schedule = an only-new-jobs feed for niche alerts (e.g. visa-sponsoring roles)
HR & comp teams	Benchmark pay rates by title, region, and employment type from real listings
Agencies	Deliver client-ready Dice datasets without writing or maintaining scrapers

How It Works

1. Input — provide Dice search/job URLs, or a keyword plus optional filters
2. Search crawl — the actor walks the search result pages, auto-paginating until maxItems or the last page
3. Detail fetch — every job is fetched from Dice's job-detail API for the full payload
4. Optional enrichment — with enrichEmails on, each employer's website is discovered and scanned for a contact email; with qualifyByPayment also on, the same pages are checked for payment processors
5. Output — one JSON row per job, exportable as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via the Apify API

Common scenarios

1. Remote full-time roles, last 7 days, with employer emails

{
  "keyword": "devops engineer",
  "workplaceType": "Remote",
  "employmentType": "FULLTIME",
  "postedDate": "SEVEN",
  "enrichEmails": true,
  "maxItems": 200
}

2. Paste a search URL as-is

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.dice.com/jobs?q=machine+learning&location=New+York,+NY&filters.workplaceTypes=Remote"
  ],
  "maxItems": 100
}

3. Scheduled only-new-jobs monitor with payment-qualified leads

{
  "keyword": "react developer",
  "location": "United States",
  "monitoringMode": true,
  "enrichEmails": true,
  "qualifyByPayment": true
}

Output Overview

Each dataset item is one job posting containing:

• Identifiers & dates — id, jobUUID, status, postedDate, modifiedDate, deactivationDate, webURL
• Compensation & terms — payRate, employmentTypes, willingToSponsor, remote, travelRequired
• Role content — skills[], full HTML description, position.title, position.location (city, state, coordinates, workplace types)
• Apply metadata — apply.easyApply, apply.applicationMethodName, apply.url, apply.jobApplyCount (when Dice exposes it)
• Company profile — company.name, logo, profile URL, brandMaxInfo company description, branding assets
• Search-card snapshot — basicInfo (the original search-result card: summary, salary text, employerType, easy-apply flag)
• Optional enrichment — contactEmail, contactWebsite, emailEnrichment, and payment fields when toggled on

Rows are nested JSON. Apify's export automatically flattens them for CSV/Excel (e.g. position.location.city becomes a column).

What Makes This Richer Than the Competition

The other Dice.com actors on Apify Store return the standard job fields — title, company, salary, description — and stop there. This actor is the only one that turns each posting into a qualified lead and supports scheduled monitoring.

Capability	shahidirfan · worldunboxer · fatihtahta	This actor
Job title, company, salary, skills, description	✅	✅
Applicant count per job (apply.jobApplyCount)	❌	✅ (when Dice exposes it)
Employer contact-email enrichment (contactEmail / contactWebsite)	❌	✅ opt-in
Payment-stack qualification (takesPayments, paymentProcessors, stripeLiveKey)	❌	✅ opt-in
Monitoring mode — reruns emit only never-seen jobs	❌	✅ per-user KV dedup
Full company profile — branding assets, recruiter vs direct, willingToSponsor, modifiedDate	partial	✅ complete

If you only need a flat list of postings, any of these actors works. If you need to reach the employer, score the lead, or track what's new, this is the only Dice actor that does it.

FAQ

Which Dice URLs are supported?

Job search URLs (dice.com/jobs?q=…, with any filters applied in your browser) and job-detail URLs (dice.com/job-detail/{uuid}). Login-gated pages, other DHI boards, and shortened URLs are not supported.

Do I need a URL at all?

No. Set keyword (plus optional location, workplaceType, employmentType, postedDate, easyApply, willingToSponsor, employerType, radius/geo fields) and the actor builds the search URL. If startUrls is non-empty, it takes priority and the filter fields are ignored.

What exactly does monitoring mode do?

With monitoringMode: true, every job is checked against a per-user key-value store of previously seen jobs; only never-seen jobs are fetched and saved. That's why a monitored rerun can return 4 rows while the Dice site shows 35 — the other 31 were captured earlier. Turn it off for a full scrape matching the Dice UI count.

How does email enrichment work, and is it guaranteed?

It's best-effort. Dice only links to the company's Dice profile, so the actor discovers the employer's real website by name, then reads its contact/about pages for an email. Rows get contactEmail (may be empty), contactWebsite, and a detailed emailEnrichment object. Enrichment never blocks a row — jobs without a discoverable site still come through.

What is payment qualification for?

Lead scoring. With qualifyByPayment: true (requires enrichEmails), the pages already fetched for email discovery are scanned for payment processors and e-commerce platforms — Stripe, Shopify, PayPal, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy, WooCommerce, Square, Chargebee and more. You get takesPayments, paymentProcessors, stripeLiveKey (if publicly exposed), and paymentConfidence — useful for separating real paying businesses from shell listings.

Are applicant counts always filled?

No. apply.jobApplyCount is captured whenever Dice's API exposes it, but Dice frequently returns null — treat it as a bonus signal, not a guaranteed field.

Can I scrape candidate profiles or anything behind login?

No. The actor only accesses publicly available job and search pages. Candidate data, applications, and employer dashboards are out of scope.

Is there a free tier limit?

Yes — runs on non-paying Apify accounts are capped at 100 jobs and monitoring mode is disabled. Paid accounts get the full maxItems (default 1000) and all features.

What about proxies and rate limits?

The default configuration (Apify Residential) works out of the box. The actor uses plain HTTP requests plus Dice's mobile detail API — no browser — so runs are fast and light on memory.

🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

Compact reference for AI agents calling this actor via the Apify MCP server or the Apify API (actor: memo23/apify-dice-scraper).

Purpose: scrapes Dice.com tech-job postings into one row per job, with optional employer contact-email enrichment and payment-stack lead qualification no competing Dice actor provides.

Minimal input:

{ "keyword": "software engineer", "location": "United States", "maxItems": 25 }

Output: one dataset row per job — id, jobUUID, status, postedDate, payRate, skills[], employmentTypes[], willingToSponsor, remote, description (HTML), webURL, apply {easyApply, applicationMethodName, url, jobApplyCount}, company {name, absoluteLogoPath, profileUrl, brandMaxInfo}, position {title, location {city, state, displayName, workplaceTypes}}, basicInfo {employerType, salary, summary}; plus opt-in contactEmail, contactWebsite, emailEnrichment, takesPayments, paymentProcessors, stripeLiveKey, paymentConfidence.

Behaviors an agent should know:

• Always set maxItems; the default is 1000 and a broad keyword can hit it.
• startUrls (full dice.com search or job-detail URLs) overrides keyword + filter fields when non-empty.
• monitoringMode: true keeps per-user seen-job state in a key-value store; reruns emit only new jobs.
• enrichEmails adds employer email/website columns (best-effort, may be empty); qualifyByPayment requires enrichEmails and adds payment-stack fields at no extra charge.
• Billing is a flat monthly rental with a free trial; there is no per-row charge. Non-paying Apify accounts are capped at 100 rows per run and cannot use monitoring mode.
• Public data only — no candidate profiles or login-gated pages; only dice.com URLs are accepted.
